    The VISI Safety Case Management System Development (VISI) is the system which RWM will ultimately use to author its safety case and to manage configuration and control changes to it. VISI has been developed by the current Contractor to 'V2' of the system. RWM requires the current Contractor to provide continuity of support, maintenance and limited development within the scope of the 2020 Contract. Additional information: The Contracting Authority is not awarding a new contract but is modifying the Contract awarded to Tessella Limited dated 24 August 2020. A four month extension to the 2020 Contract is urgently required so that there is no gap in the services provision. The Contracting Authority will be commencing a fresh public procurement process (RWM176 - Technical Toolkits: Support, Maintenance and Development Framework) by mid April 2021.

Procedure rationaleThe Contracting Authority considers that the proposed modifications to the 2020 Contract are not 'substantial', pursuant to art. 72(1)(e) of the Directive, and accordingly the continuation of the VISI Safety Case Management System Development Services (the Services) may lawfully be agreed between the parties and implemented without the need to conduct a fresh procurement procedure. The character of the 2020 Contract and the Services to be delivered by the Contractor remains the same; the services required by the Contracting Authority are continuity of support, maintenance and limited development. This is important as the tool may be in need of bug fixes and enhancement which arise during the scientific population activity; there is to be no extension in the scope of the 2020 Contract; there is to be no change to the economic balance of the 2020 Contract in favour of the Contractor; and there is to be no replacement of the Contractor to whom the Contracting Authority had initially awarded the Contract. Under this extension no significant new work will be placed which may give the incumbent a material advantage in any subsequent competition. The Contracting Authority will be commencing a fresh public procurement process (RWM176 - Technical Toolkits: Support, Maintenance and Development Framework) by mid April 2021. The Contracting Authority proposes to extend the 2020 Contract for four months only to provide continuity of support, maintenance and limited development.
